i mean offensivly wlad is better he is faster better skills more proper punches. but defensivly vitali is better his chin is better and he's more tough then wlad. they both got alot of heart tho. i'd have to say thier even.

overall id say vatili, wlad has slightly better offence but lacks the chin
Wladimir he can box and he can go for the KO...the chin isn't even a question Vitali can take the better shot but lacks the versitility of Wlad and he's more injury prone
Vitali really impressed me with his kickboxing backgroud I saw a fight of his and he looked so light on his feet and agile....When you see him box he looked like an awkward piece of construction equipment.... Emanuel Steward said in an Interview that most of the injuries Vitali suffers from are because of the kickboxing I would say in a Fight that Vitali could KO Wlad, In terms of size Wlad will have never fought someone as big and powerful as his brother, Vitali has (Lennox Lewis) The Chin would be the factor...
The Chin is perhaps the most important factor to any boxer becuase at top level you are likely to get hit clean a few times and a shakey chin would get exposed....unless of course you have an amazing defence. Vitali stopps Wlad late on for me.
Both at first had that mechancal style...But IMO Vitaly proved to be the better fighter he had developed a more relaxed style and became adept to changing his style need be...IMO though Wlad hits harder and is faster
Vitali,
out of interest predictions on a vitali samuel peters fight?
easy stoppage for Vitali...Sam is one dimensional and Vitali is rougher than Wlad
Vitali

is vitali ever gonna come back ?
Vitali, he had good offence...and could just take a way better shot then his bro could. If only the jaw ran all the way the through the family and didnt skip one :-\
vitali and wlad would of never fought each other.
Vitali would have had the wbc belt for awhile (if it wasnt for injury), wlad would of won these paper belts, and when wlad was ready for a WBC belt, vitali would of then retired.
Dont forget, they made one promise to their mother.They would never fight each other. :-* :'(
Honestly...it's a hard call for me.
I was a huge Vitali fan...always will be...even though I was disgusted with him leaving due to an injury then saying he'd come back for Lewis.
Anywho, I think that Vitali is the much more exciting fighter & he's got hellish power also...but Wlad seems fundamentally more sound & in the end overall...he's the better boxer.
I didn't really see that or pay that much attention...being so caught up in the bigger brother.
I like Wlad & IWO...he's one of the most fluid 200lbers out there.
Also...I don't believe that his chin is really an issue. I could be wrong...but I think that the guy's got a hell of a record against some hard hitters.
I suppose we shall see when he faces Briggs this November.
He may, and if he does, I hope he will bring Lennox Lewis out of retirement and "retire" him again. 8)Quote:
